Default Trusts

My husband's grandmother before she passed away put the bulk of her estate in a trust fund (this is held in Mass). This trust fund allows her daughter (my mother-in-law) to live off the interest (she lives in PA). Upon her passing, from what we understand the trust will dissolve and be split among the four grandchildren and/or their respective spouses (one of whom lives in Mass, two live in NJ and one lives in PA). Our question is: how will we be affected by tax liability or does this trust become part of my mother-in-law's estate when she passes? Thank you.

Hi--they normally do not give tax advice on this site; you may check with the IRS directly; or your accountant; or the H & R Block web site for 20 dollars: HR Block Tax Advisor link --

Default Re: Trusts

So this trust would not become part of her estate then?
